The Brunello di Montalcino is quite a young wine - just 100 years old. Ferruccio Biondi-Santi, who then did not want to settle for the Chianti produced in Montalcino, invented the Brunello di Montalcino in the 19th century. He tried to create a new and independent wine from his best Sangiovese-grapes. The result was an outstanding long-living, muscular wine requiring a long storage time. Not until the sixties there are other producers for Brunello than Biondi-Santi.
The Brunello is deep and dark with a strong body, very well structured, tart with a slight bitter note, well-proportioned acid and adequate tannin. It is a wine being produced of one sole grape, the Sangiovese Grosso grape, a local clone of Sangiovese.
